Indicated for use when concerned about dryness.
Verona can be used in the shower or bath as a liquid soap on the external vaginal area.

- Rinse well under running water.
Can every woman use Verona?
Yes, from your first period until after menopause, Verona offers a complete range of intimate washes, tailored to every phase of your life.
At what age can I start using Verona?
Verona can be used as of the first menstrual period. Generally, menstruation begins at around the age of 12, although it can begin earlier or later. Under the influence of hormones, secretions and odours can begin to occur. Verona products for daily intimate care can help to maintain the natural balance of your intimate area, helping you to feel fresh and confident.
Can Verona be used daily?
Verona products have an adapted pH that respects the natural acidity of the vagina. Moreover, they are very mild and soap-free, and are suitable for daily use.
Which products can I use to prevent odour?
To help prevent odours, start with a gentle cleansing wash such as Verona Fresh. This wash contains active deodorising ingredients that help prevent odours from happening.
How is Verona different?
Verona products contain ingredients like lactic acid, which supports the vagina’s natural protection. The products have an adapted pH that respects the natural acidity of the vagina. Moreover, they are very mild and soap-free, and are suitable for daily use.
How should a feminine wash be used? Can I use it on a daily basis?
Verona can be used as a liquid soap on the external intimate area in the shower or bath. Work it into a foam, and then rinse well under running water. Dry carefully with a clean towel. Only apply to your external vulvar area. Verona products have an adapted pH that respects the natural acidity of the vagina. Moreover, they are very mild and soap-free, and so are suitable for daily use.
I've been using liquid soap and soap bars for years to wash my vagina, and I haven't had any trouble. Do I really need to use a feminie wash?
Soaps in any form (liquid or bars) usually have a high pH that is very far from that of the vagina’s own natural environment. Products like these will only damage the vagina’s natural acidic layer, which serves as its protection from bad bacteria. Verona products have an adapted pH that respects the natural acidity of the vagina. Moreover, they are very mild and soap-free, and so are suitable for daily use.
What is lactoserum?
Lactoserum is a natural ingredient refined from milk. It is used to stabilise and maintain the vulva’s protective environment. Verona Balanced has been enriched with lactoserum to minimise discomfort whilst protecting the natural micro flora.
What is lactic acid?
Lactic acid is also called “milk” acid. This liquid is naturally produced by the body in the skin of the vulva and inside the vagina to create a naturally acidic environment. This natural acidity favours the perfect balance of vaginal flora. The good and bad bacteria present in the vagina are then kept in balance, keeping the intimate area safe from all kinds of infections. Lactic acid is produced by lactobacilli (the good bacteria), whose growth is in turn also facilitated by an acidic (low pH) environment.
Verona products contain natural L-lactic acid, the same kind the body produces naturally, and have an adapted pH that respects the natural acidity of the vagina.
What are lactobacilli?
Lactobacilli are a kind of bacteria in the vaginal flora that produce lactic acid. The lactic acid creates an acidic environment that protects the vagina from an overgrowth of the harmful bacteria, which can lead to a variety of infections. The greater the number of lactobacilli, the more stable the natural acidic environment is in the vagina.

Parents, you can help protect your child from getting certain HPV-related cancers. How? With a safe and effective vaccine! Here are the top fives things you should know about HPV, or human papillomavirus, and the vaccine.
- HPV infection is very common. HPV is the most common sexually transmitted infection in the United States. In fact, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that about 79 million Americans currently have HPV and that almost every person who is sexually active will get HPV at some point in their life, if they don’t get the vaccine. People with HPV tend to be in their late teens and early twenties, and most people with HPV don’t know they have it. There are many different types of HPV infections, and while some are minor and go away on their own, others can cause long-term problems, like genital warts and cancer. HPV infections are responsible for 90% of anal and cervical cancers, 70% of vaginal and vulvar cancers, 60% of penile cancers, most genital warts, and certain cancers of the throat and neck.
- You can help protect your child from cancers caused by HPV. Fortunately, there are safe and effective vaccines that prevent infection with the types of HPV that cause cancer and genital warts. These vaccines were studied extensively in clinical trials before being licensed, and they continue to be monitored for safety. What’s more is that the vaccines work extremely well, and they offer long-lasting protection against HPV and HPV-related diseases.
- Most side effects of the HPV vaccine are minor. The most common side effects of the HPV vaccine are similar to other vaccines and may include pain, swelling, and redness at the injection site. Other adverse effects that can occur include fever, headache, fatigue, nausea, muscle or joint pain, or fainting (at the time of injection or immediately after).
- Both boys and girls can benefit from the HPV vaccine. The vaccine helps prevent infections that can cause cancer. Cervical cancer is the most common HPV-related cancer among women, and oropharyngeal (throat, tongue, tonsils) cancers are most common among men. The CDC estimates that HPV probably causes more than 10,000 new cervical cancer cases in women and more than 9,000 new oropharyngeal cancer cases in men each year in the United States.
- Boys and girls need to finish the full vaccine series of two or three doses for the vaccine to be effective. The HPV vaccine is administered in multiple doses, but the number of doses depends on a child’s age. Children 9–14 years old need two doses, and they should get the second dose six to 12 months after their first dose. Teens and young adults 15–26 need three doses of the vaccine over six months. They should get the second dose one to two months after their first dose and the third dose six months after the first dose.
The HPV vaccine is a powerful tool in preventing cancer. If you have questions, talk to your child’s doctor about HPV and the vaccine, or visit www.cdc.gov/hpv.

Recently while i was browsing the web, i came across a rather eye-opening article by one Amit Dhawan.
The article exposed the fact as to how Encyclopaedia Britannica has openly blasphemed the Sanātan Vedic Dharm by trying to belittle Lord Krishn and Other Gods.
Read the full article here: http://ia301527.us.archive.org/0/items/HinduismMisinterpretedEncyclopediaBritannicaInsultsHinduism-AmitRaj/HinduismMisinterpreted_encyclopdiaBritannicaInsultsHinduism-AmitRajDhawan.html
For reference, read the online Britannica article at: Hinduism (religion) -- Britannica Online Encyclopedia
i regret not being a US/UK resident so that i could sue the Britannica fellows for such a rascaldom.
i hope someone from the said territory would take these folks to task...

“GT” may have been a dream for many in India, but due to high necked prices, it restrained the buyers from possessing a one in down the line segment. Now finally we coughed up a news on internet which says, “BMW will roll out the 3 Series GT here in India by the end of this year.” After learning about it in detail, our excitement top notched some of the hillock and it made a growl from there, “Yes we can afford a GT too!”
Lest of some insane, the idea of launching a GT in the starting range is not bad at all. BMW may use the terms ‘delighting coupe’, ‘affordability’ and ‘aggressiveness’ if asked to speak about the GT in just three simple words. Truly, the 3 Series GT may find a number of buyers if launched appropriately as per to the pocket of targeted audience. Hence, the rear windscreen attached bootlid, high head and leg room for front and rear, and some instant drama on its engine numbers, makes this vehicle to stand out alone from the entire cluster, and compels to depict its own wisdom pro-actively. Ample of boot space, and high raised driving posture makes it a perfect day-to-day (as well as the weekend) car to drive out there on the roads of India.
Soothing to our tarmacs, the BMW’s 3.0-litre straight-six diesel for the badge of 330d, and the four-cylinder to confront 320d will be seen in the Bavarian’s GT league on our shores. The 0-100kmph will also be magnificent in approximately near to seven seconds time. Meanwhile, we cannot completely assure the 3 Series GT will be a head turner for our audience; but it’s better to not expect the admiration like that of the 5 Series GT, which is completely a class apart. The 3 Series GT will feel like a incomplete hybridization of two certain segments, an entry level sedan and a crossover, but after watching a couple of them on the roads the onlookers may get used it, unlike which they were finding difficult to get it soaked completely in the initial sightings.
Hope so the launch by the end of 2013 will be able to tell what the output of admiration for 3 Series GT will be. In the meanwhile, BMW just needed to keep its fingers crossed, because the Indians hadn’t experienced such a class in the entry level range before, which may cue that they may take some time to absorb it completely in their fraternity.

Assuming the Ecosexual Position: The Earth as Lover
In 2008, Annie Sprinkle and Beth Stephens married the Earth, setting them on the path to explore the realms of ecosexuality. Assuming the Ecosexual Position describes how the two came together as lovers and collaborators, how they took a stand against homophobia and xenophobia, and how this union led to the miraculous conception of the Love Art Laboratory, their seven-year art and exhibition project with performance artists Linda M. Montano, Guillermo Gómez-Peña, and feminist pornographer Madison Young.
Throughout the pages of the book, Stephens and Sprinkle share the process of making interactive performance art, celebrating their vows to love, honor, and cherish the many elements of the Earth.

Open Source SOM/DSOM?

Esther Schindler blogs about the possibility of Open Sourcing IBM's SOM/DSOM [System Object Model / Distributed System Object Model] ... I worked with this stuff back in the 1990's and it was marvellous. Object here is proxy for object there ... whee ...
A few years before Java got off the ground SOM/DSOM was a "parent class" so to speak of CORBA .
Problem was, those hi-end 350MHz IBM desktops weren't fast enough for this sort of distributed object thing. That situation has changed now, very much so. So there's this mature, debugged mountain of code with a very simple metaprogramming model that a child can comprehend. And it's locked in a drawer, more or less :)
In the 1990's I was urging IBM to Open Source the wonderful Object Rexx language, which they finally did a few years ago, bless 'em and their glacial speed leaving the very worthy and vibrantly developing Open Object Rexx teetering on the brink of relevance.
Ditto SOM/DSOM ... Open Source it now, Big Blue, and show us you understand that Open Source is not just a publicity ploy, but a model for decades of ongoing software collaboration. It may save SOM/DSOM's relevance for a programming generation.

It’s funny how different kids can be.
Take school subjects, for instance. My oldest loves history, literature, and theology. My next oldest loves math, art…
Who in the world likes handwriting? My child, that’s who.
I get that a log of kids dislike handwriting. I don’t particularly desire to practice my penmanship either.
For those of you who have kids who don’t particularly like handwriting, here are some fun ways to sneak handwriting practice into your child’s life. If you do it correctly, they won’t even know that you’re actually teaching them.
These handwriting ideas are for kids who are learning to spell and write. They won’t be helpful for children who are just learning to write the alphabet. Don’t despair! We have some help for the littles here.
Handwriting Practice Ideas
1. Start a Mommy and Me Book
Pick up a plain notebook the next time you’re shopping. Tell your kiddo that the two of you are going to write stories together.
Spend some time with fun craft supplies and make it a blast to decorate the outside of the notebook. Take your cues from them. Let them make it as goofy as they want!
Next, brainstorm about the first story you’ll write together. Encourage their little imaginations to explore a world of all sorts of inventive ideas.
Once you’ve settled on a title, explain that each day the two of you will write one sentence to tell the story.
Your child will write the first sentence, then you, and so on.
When one story is finished, start again with a new story.
It’s a fantastic exercise to help with their penmanship, their spelling, and sentence formatting.
Bonus: you’ll have an incredible keepsake.
2. Write 10 Letters a Month
Writing letters is an art form that is all but extinct. In helping your child write 10 letters a month, you’ll accomplish much more than handwriting practice.
They’ll learn communication skills that will last a lifetime.
Lead by example. Sit with your son or daughter and write a letter as well. Talk with them about what they should think about before they write.
Do they want to tell someone something? What is it? Do they want to thank someone? For what? Do they want to ask how someone is doing?
Create a checklist to help them understand the elements of a letter:
Of course, grandparents will always be happy to get a letter from their grandchild. But there are lots more folks who’d love a letter. Here are 10 ideas to help get them started.
3. Become a Biographer
Ask your child to choose a person they find interesting. They’re going to interview them and later write a very short biography about the person.
Prior to sitting down for the interview, they should write out 2 or 3 questions.
Let them record the answers to help them remember what was said.
4. Thank You Notes
Kids don’t have to wait for someone to give them a gift before they write a thank you note.
There are definitely folks who deserved to be thanked every day. Have a conversation about all the people they meet who do good.
The mail carrier
Door greeters at Walmart
Their Mom or Dad
No need to buy thank you notes. Part of the fun is creating your own!
5. A to Z Facts
Put 26 cards in a basket with a letter on each. When your child picks one each day, give them a silly assignment to write about that corresponds with the letter.
Here are some silly examples:
A – Ant. Write three sentences about what it might be like to be as small as an ant.
B – Balloons. Write three sentences about what it would feel like to have a balloon that could carry you places.
C – Cap. Write three sentences about what they would do if they had a magic cap that could make them invisible when they wear it.
Those are some ideas I had for some entertaining handwriting practice for kids. Do you see any that could be helpful?
If you have great ways you’ve helped your child with their handwriting practice, would you share? I’m always looking for fresh ideas.

For these people, the Respecialization Program becomes an opportunity to consider in depth training in the field and begin gaining clinical experience.
The Respecialization Program follows the regular IPTAR course calendar for starting and ending dates and vacations. As in the full program some courses meet for eight week quarters, and some for sixteen-week halves of the year.

Another young Crumlin BC graduate will debut in the coming weeks.
Not long after European Schoolboy gold medal winner Willow Hayden punched for pay on the undercard of Anthony Cacace’s successful British title defence amateur clubmate and pro stablemate Cian Doyle will be introduced to pro fans for the first time.
Boxing Ireland have confirmed the 20-year-old will debut on the Celtic Clash 12 card scheduled for the Devenish Complex, Belfast and Saturday, October 2.
Talking when he signed pro terms the Phil Sutcliffe trained Boxing Ireland promoted fighter revealed he was ready for the switch.
“Loads of people over the years said that I have a style suited to the pro game,” he told Irish-boxing.com.
“I’m a come forward fighter, I’ve good hand speed and power and a very good engine. The longer rounds will suit me, in the amateurs, I used to be only getting going in the second and third round, so I’ll be very well suited to the longer rounds,” he said before revealing why he decided to turn over at this time.
“I just felt the timing was right to turn over and give the pro game a go, obviously because of covid, there’s nothing really happening in the amateurs at the moment and I always wanted to turn pro so I thought this was the perfect time to turn over,” he adds before explaining he is keen to get started.
“I can’t wait honestly, I’m buzzing to make my debut and hopefully get out a few times before the end of the year, it’s a new journey. The pro game is completely different to the amateurs so I just can’t wait for a new challenge I’m very excited to get going.”
Doyle gets going in just over a month and will fight alongside fellow Crumlin based pro Jake Hanney as well as Owen Doyle, fellow debutant Liam Walsh, local favourtie Owen O’Neill and Bray throwback Eddie Treacy.

Izola Bank appoints new Chairperson of the Board
Izola Bank plc today announced that Caroline Van Marcke, a non-executive member of the Board since January 2000, has been appointed as its new Chairperson. Effective from 24th March 2022, Caroline Van Marcke succeeds her mother Magdalena De Roeck who has served as Chairperson for the past twelve years.
A business engineering graduate from the Solvay Business School at the University of Brussels, Caroline Van Marcke is the CEO and Executive Director of the Van Marcke Group, a position which she has held since 2014. The Group, parent company to Izola Bank plc, is a well-known family-owned business founded in 1929.
It specialises in the wholesaling, retailing and distribution of energy-efficient heating, sanitary ware and plumbing supplies for both the B2B and B2C markets and is also active in the manufacturing, real estate and banking industries. The mission of the Group is “we care for quality of life”, which is put into action by offering products, services and solutions that unburden customers whilst respecting the environment.
Through her leadership on sustainability, passionate vision and strategic innovation, she has steered the Group into a new age of business. This includes the launch of e-commerce channels, green-inspired concept showrooms and the further expansion of the Group’s operations internationally into the Netherlands, France, Luxembourg and US markets. Today, Van Marcke Group owns and manages thirty operational companies in seven countries and has 1600 full time staff.
As a keen advocate for the environment, in 2019 Caroline Van Marcke realised her futureproof vision of building a fully carbon neutral distribution centre in Belgium with 518 geothermal drillings and 14,000 solar panels on its roof. This highly technological distribution centre, with the capacity to automate 70% of orders, will support the Group’s ambition of further expansion in Europe. She previously served as the President of FEST, the European Federation of the Sanitary & Heating Wholesale Industry.
She has been actively involved as a Non-Executive Director of Izola Bank plc since 2000.
Caroline Van Marcke commented on her new appointment: ‘I am honoured to take on this role at such an exciting time for Izola Bank and following the excellent work my mother has helped to achieve during her tenure as Chairperson. Today the Bank has a rock-solid foundation on which to build, achieved through years of being a trusted and secure partner to our customers. In leading the Board, two of my key objectives will be achieving continued stability in a rapidly changing economic environment and positioning the Bank to remain relevant to our customers. We need to focus on being both agile and responsive enough to meet the new demands in the market and to continue offering and developing sustainable products, services and solutions through innovation and digitization, that fully respect the environment.’
Andrew Mifsud, CEO of Izola Bank plc added: ‘From initially servicing only the Van Marcke group, the Bank now offers a range of products from commercial lending and invoice financing to home loans and personal savings. With Caroline Van Marcke’s drive and enthusiasm coupled with a strategic mindset, solid business acumen and change management experience, I am reassured that the Board has a safe pair of hands to steer it through the next phase of the Bank’s development. The Board would also like to thank Magdalena De Roeck for her strong contribution as Chairperson over the past twelve years.’

The Hawaii Department of Public Safety - Corrections Division began when they became a state in 1959.
Hawaii’s four correctional facilities have a general capacity of 4,000. Unsentenced individuals make up a good percentrage of the total incarcerated population. There are another 15,000 on probation or parole, and all of these are overseen by a staff of approximately 2,000.
The following will explain the tricks and hacks you can use to find any inmate in custody with the Hawaii Department of Corrections.
Since Hawaii does not have its own online inmate search, it contracts with Vinelink Inmate Search Notification System to keep track of inmates, both sentenced and unsentenced, that it has in custody. The Vinelink System is updated daily, and sometimes more often.
In order to search for an inmate, you have to know the exact spelling of their full name, first AND last. The only information you will get after looking up an inmate, is the facility in which they are being held, their age and their race.
You do not need to register an account with Vinelink, although if you are registered you will be able to get the inmate's date of birth and their full Inmate ID# in the listing, as well as get notified when the inmate is moved to another facility, or is released.
There are no city or county jails in Hawaii.
All offenders, while awaiting court dates for serious crimes, are held in one of Hawaii's State Prisons overseen by the Hawaii Department of Public Safety.
After an arrest, an offender in Hawaii is sometimes held in one of the state facilities until they either pay a bond or bail, which entitles them to be released upon a promise to return to court for their trial, or they are held until their trial.
If an offender is found guilty and is given a sentence of short sentence of a week or two, he or she will do their time in that same state facility.
If they are found guilty and given a longer sentence, they will be remanded to the Hawaii Department of Public Safety - Corrections Division to do their time. The only exception is if their crime is a federal offense. In that case they will be tried in a federal court and if found guilty, will be remanded to a federal prison.
Hawaii State Prison Facilities
The Bureau of Prisons Inmate Locator includes inmates that are not only in custody, but who have been in custody and have been released (or who died in custody) since 1982.
For inmates in custody prior to 1982, visit the National Archives Records Administration and provide the following information:

When someone that is not a US Citizen gets arrested in the United States, and they are here illegally, depending on what state or city they are arrested in, the person may be turned over to ICE.
Many states such as New York and California, as well as hundreds of US cities, have declared themselves 'sanctuary cities' and do not turn over foreigners here illegally, even if they are committing crimes in their jurisdiction.
However, when an alien here illegally is turned over to ICE, and sent to one of the over 100 Immigration Detention Centers in the United States, the only way to try and locate where they are being detained is using the Online Detainee Locator System.
You can look them up using their assigned A-Number.
You can also try and look them up by using their name.

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVES: Millions of cases of malaria are reported worldwide annually and India belongs to the endemic zone of malaria. The purpose of our study was to diagnose malaria among suspected cases by gold standard microscopy and rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) and compare the results obtained by the two. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Blood samples were collected from 422 patients during three consecutive years. They were subjected to microscopy using Fields stain and rapid diagnostic tests based on the principle of immuno-chromatography for detecting Plasmodium falciparum specific histidine rich protein II and pan malarial species specific enzyme aldolase. RESULTS: Out of the 422 samples only 19 samples (4.50%) tested positive for malaria. Of these all the samples were positive by microscopy but only 17 samples were positive by RDTs. Four positive samples were suggestive of co-infection. CONCLUSION: RDTs are not able to replace microscopy as the gold standard for malaria diagnosis but are a good replacement in resource poor settings reaching those unable to access good quality microscopy.

Fallbrook at a Glance
Known as the “Friendly Village,” this charming spot boasts a rich agricultural heritage, with rolling hills dotted by avocado and citrus groves. It’s a haven for artists and nature lovers alike, offering a vibrant art scene with numerous galleries and workshops. The annual Avocado Festival draws visitors eager to celebrate the region’s key produce. Despite its serene vibe, the area relies heavily on cars for getting around, given its sprawling layout and limited public transport options. This reliance means that junk car removal services play a vital role in keeping the community tidy and accessible.
With just over 30,000 residents, the town maintains a tight-knit, friendly atmosphere. The climate is ideal, with sunny days perfect for exploring local gems like the Grand Tradition Estate and Gardens. Traffic may not be as hectic as in larger cities, but the importance of keeping streets clear of inactive vehicles is still significant. Locals appreciate efficient services that help maintain the beauty and functionality of their beloved village.

In a brief Public Notice released today, the FCC’s Wireline Bureau announced that it will delay the requirement for recipients of Connect America Fund (CAF) to begin testing broadband speed and latency until the first quarter of 2020. The testing requirements were established in a July 2018 Order (see our July 11, 2018 e-Lert for details). That Order required all CAF recipients with defined buildout obligations to conduct the testing beginning the third quarter of 2019 and report the results of tests conducted during the third and fourth quarters of 2019 by July 1, 2020.
When the Order was released, Legacy carriers with 80% or more 10/1 broadband deployment did not have defined buildout obligations and thus were not subject to the testing requirements. On May 2, 2019, the Wireline Bureau released a Public Notice with revised buildout obligations under the 25/3 speed standard that are now applicable for all Legacy carriers. Accordingly, beginning the first quarter of 2020, all Legacy carriers will be required to conduct the tests in addition to A-CAM I and A-CAM II electors, Rural Broadband Experiment winners, CAF Phase II auction winners, and Price Cap carriers receiving CAF Phase II support.
As explained in today’s Public Notice, the delay is due to several factors, including the need for the FCC to address pending petitions seeking changes to the rules and develop interfaces required to collect the data. As these developments occur, JSI will keep clients informed through e-Lerts and will conduct a webinar once all the rules are final. We are also available to work with companies on an individual basis with meeting the testing requirements.
If you would like our assistance or have any questions about broadband testing, please contact a member of our team by clicking the button below.

On November 24, 2015, the FCC released a pole attachment Order that moves to balance the rates paid by cable and telecom providers to pole owners. This Order partially grants the National Cable & Telecommunications Association’s (NCTA’s) petition for reconsideration. NCTA argued that pole attachment fees cable companies pay would increase sharply now that broadband service is categorized as a telecom service and would fall under the telecommunications pole attachment formula instead of the cable pole attachment formula. The FCC found that although it tried to equalize the two pole attachment formulas in 2011 by creating an option of two different calculations, both of which assumed three pole attachers in rural areas and five in urban areas, the formulas still could produce significantly different results. The new formulas now allow for the actual number of attaching entities in the area: two, three, four, or five instead of the fixed assumption of three and five attachers.
Cable attachments have just one formula, but telecommunications providers have two rate formulas, allowing pole owners to use the higher of the two results. To bring the telecom rates closer to the cable rates, the FCC changed only one of the telecom formulas in this Order. Because of this, telecom rates may not change if the second telecom formula is higher and used by the pole owner.
This is a double-edge sword for rural companies. The new formula could reduce the amount LECs can charge companies to attach equipment to its poles. On the other hand, if an electric utility owns the poles, it may have to lower the rates it is charging, if there is provision in the pole agreement to make rate adjustments.
If you have any questions or would like to see how the new formulas affect your company’s pole attachment rates charged to other providers, please contact Valerie Wimer at 301-459-7590.

The scope of trademark protection
Trademark right of protection in general gives the exclusive right to use the mark for profit. In other words exclusivity granted by a trademark prohibits others from using in business trademark identical or similar for identical or similar goods / services. To sum up, the scope of trademark rights is determined by the specific goods or services associated with the mark and the geographic territory of its use/registration.
Exceptions are renowned trademarks (trademarks with a reputation), having additional privileges in many countries. Protection of these marks is extended over other goods/services than the one for which the trade mark was originally registered. This is because it is assumed that another entrepreneur could profit considerably from the reputation of a well-known trade mark.

Construction Site of the Week
LAX Train Station, Los Angeles, USA
Los Angeles, known for its expansive urban sprawl and iconic landmarks, is on the brink of unveiling a game-changing transportation hub. The LAX Train Station, a light rail hub designed to revolutionize connectivity between the Los Angeles Metro Rail system and Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), is nearing completion. Situated at the intersection of Aviation Boulevard and 96th Street in the Westchester area, this station promises to enhance accessibility for both locals and travelers.
A Step Toward Seamless Travel
The LAX Train Station has been meticulously designed to serve as a vital transfer point, bridging the gap between the bustling Metro Rail system and one of the world’s busiest airports. With the station expected to be operational in the coming year, its modern infrastructure aligns with the city’s vision of creating a sustainable and efficient transit system.
Kalzip Roof: A Key Architectural Element
A standout feature of the station is its roof construction, which has reached an advanced stage of completion. Grimshaw Architects, renowned for their innovative and sustainable designs, envisioned a roof that complements the station’s sleek, contemporary aesthetic while meeting rigorous functional requirements.
For this landmark project, a Kalzip roof made of steel was chosen, offering durability, adaptability, and a modern finish. Kalzip’s proven expertise in delivering high-performance roofing solutions ensured that the structure could withstand the demands of the Southern Californian climate while aligning with the project’s architectural vision.
Collaboration and Expertise
The successful execution of the LAX Train Station’s roofing project was a collaborative effort. Eberhard, A Tecta America Company, LLC, was entrusted with the installation, leveraging their extensive experience in large-scale construction projects. Their skilled craftsmanship brought Grimshaw’s design to life, demonstrating precision and attention to detail that ensures both aesthetic appeal and long-term reliability.
As the project nears its final stages, excitement builds for the transformative impact the LAX Train Station will have on the region. Its strategic location and modern infrastructure are set to streamline travel for millions, creating a vital link between Metro Rail’s extensive network and LAX’s global gateway.
The collaboration between Kalzip, Grimshaw Architects, and Eberhard exemplifies the power of innovative design and engineering in shaping the future of urban mobility. The Kalzip roof, with its sleek steel finish, will undoubtedly become a signature element of this landmark station, symbolizing the fusion of functionality and design.
Stay tuned for more updates as we approach the station’s grand opening and witness how this remarkable project transforms transportation in Los Angeles.

In the past, I've used monoprints as a form of vibrant sketching. Paint goes down quickly on a gel plate and prints are made without a lot of additional adjustments or layers. The smaller 8 x 10 or 5 x 7 format lends itself to the spontaneity and joy I like - you can't overthink it.
But trying to make larger paintings using the same process is a bit more challenging. Going big has pushed my boundaries (literally and artistically). When I tackle a new project, I like to look at references but in the case of big prints, I haven't found many other artists using large format (16 x20) gel plates and there aren't any applicable books or tutorials. So, I plunge ahead with the default trail and error method, discovering what works for my aesthetic. While the landscape subject matter has remained constant regardless of size, the loose brushwork in my smaller sketches has given way to a more refined and subtle layering of colors and textures. One or two layers has increased to over a dozen.
Paint must now cover a much larger surface area so my new toolkit includes all sorts of implements from brushes and palette knives to sponges and rollers. Experience with watercolors has also had an impact in the application of layers of translucent colors. In some cases, I add watercolor accents at the end after the acrylic paints have dried.
Five new big paintings are framed and headed to a small gallery in town. Hopefully the new work will be accepted and away we go!
There's still lots of learning to be done...and that's really the exciting part of being an artist.

LOWER BRULE — A Lower Brule man has been sentenced in federal court for assaulting a Tribal police officer. U-S Attorney Alison Ramsdell says 42 year-old Jade LaRoche was sentenced Tuesday to three years and eight months in federal prison. He will be required to serve three years of probation. Evidence presented during a two-day trial showed jurors that on Holloween last year, LaRoche resisted the efforts of a Tribal police officer called to remove LaRoche from a residence in Lower Brule. When LaRoche learned police were there to arrest him, he ran from officers into a back bedroom in the home. As the officer approached, LaRoche charged out, hitting the officer and knocking him into a table. The officer suffered injuries in the fall to his neck back and shoulder. Following the verdict, LaRoche was taken into custody by the U-S Marshal’s Service to begin serving his sentence.

Kia’s Iconic SOUL hits North America with BLACKPINK
Kia, together with K-POP’s leading girl group BLACKPINK, left a heated sensation in all of North America. As a part of the 『K-POP with KIA』 project, Kia partnered with BLACKPINK as the title sponsor of the group’s first ever World Tour. Not only did fans get to hear BLACKPINK’s new album “Kill this love” at the North America tour, but also encounter the dynamic, stylish ‘SOUL X BLACKPINK’ special edition for the first time.
With BLACKPINK as Kia’ global brand ambassador and Kia as title sponsor of ‘BLACKPINK 2019 WORLD TOUR with Kia [IN YOUR AREA]’, they started the North America tour on April 17th up until May 8th. They toured 6 major cities in the United States and Canada, including LA, Chicago, Hamilton, and Newark – the Kia Booth set up in these cities gathered around 30,000 visitors and ended on a successful note.
At the concerts, Kia provided novel ways for global fans to enjoy their time by planning a K-POP Cover Dance competition, K-POP Karaoke singing zone, and the ‘Kia on Beat Stage’ where experiential K-POP content was shown.
At every concert in North America, Kia displayed a special SOUL model that emanated the dynamic and stylish concept of BLACKPINK. This show-car, ‘SOUL X BLACKPINK edition’, was specially designed for this tour and gained immense attention from people at the concert. In fact, we were able to observe many North America concert visitors expressing their new opinion of Kia cars as being ‘trendy’ and ‘attractive’.
Kia plans to come together with top entertainment companies in Korea and continues collaborating with musicians to widen the horizons of global cultural marketing and spread awareness of Kia’s brand.

How did you do last night with all the Halloween candy? Maybe the next question should be how are you doing today with all that Halloween candy? Haha. So tempting isn’t it?
Maybe you’re giving it away to the office or school, or if you’re like me, I like to keep some of it because I actually do enjoy candy. Like I mention in most of my stuff, I’m not keen on the black/white or all or nothing mentality. So, for those of us that love the candy, how on earth can we find that moderation when we have a huge sack full of it right in front of us?
We play games with ourselves and create small victories to feel accomplished and confident with our choices. That’s how we do it. 🙂
- The carry over method: This is one of my favorite games when it comes to candy. Here’s what you do. Let’s say you want to treat yourself to 2 pieces of candy for the next month because to you, that’s moderation. So, you ration them out just for a week at a time. So that would be totaling 14 pieces for the week. Put them in a baggie and make sure it’s out of your view until it’s time to have them. Let’s say for tonight, you only want 1 piece versus 2. Then, let’s say tomorrow you end up over-indulging a little bit and have 4. Well, now you only have a certain amount left for the week. You cannot go over the 14 you agreed to. If your bag of candy is gone before the end of the week, oh well. If you end up eating less than the 14 you agreed to then you can carry those over to the following week. Make sense? So the more you have at the end of each week, the better.
- Out of sight game: Let’s be real, if we have the candy in full view we will eat it. “Oh, just one since they are so small.” Before we know it, we polished off an equivalent of 3 king size candy bars. Just get them out of your way and take them out of that bread basket. If you decide you do want one, enjoy it but make sure to put the candy back where you found it. On that top shelf of the pantry. 🙂 You could even have your kids or hubs hide it from you.
- Nibble it out: This is where you have a larger piece of candy that you savor over a period of time. You could easily stick this in the freezer and after dinner have a bite rather than the entire thing. This works great for some as they only need a little taste to take the edge off.
Any other games you play with yourself when it comes to candy moderation? If so, I would love to hear about them!
Make sure to check me out on FB >>>HERE for more updates on moderation choices.

To complete your EDC gear, WESN also offers a range of carabiners and quick-release keychains.
History of WESN
The brand's foundation was laid when Billy Chester received a knife from a friend, as a token of their friendship. When he received the knife, he didn't know how much it would mean to him years later. Billy believes that the EDC you carry should say something about you as a person. Even though Billy didn't initially plan to found a new brand, he started WESN in 2017. He was looking for a knife that fit his criteria and requirements. When he couldn't find what he was looking for, he began to find ways to create the perfect knife, made from the best materials. The type of knife you proudly display, instead of hiding it away in your junk drawer.
That's when Billy started a Kickstarter project, so he could create this perfect knife for a few people. Suddenly, over 3000 people were supporting his project. It became apparent that there's a lot of demand for a product designed in accordance with these core values. Now, WESN's range includes many cool EDC products, designed to be practical, functional and incredibly durable. Pocket knives are not just a tool to be used though, they can also be fashion pieces to suit your active lifestyle. With this in mind, WESN designs their products in minimalist style with unparalleled functionality. Even though it's a relatively new brand, they're quickly collecting a large fanbase!

The dangerous drug attorneys at the Law Offices of Gregory Krasovsky can provide legal advice and representation to individuals and families considering pursuing a Serophene lawsuit. In order for a plaintiff to secure a maximum settlement in litigation of a Serophene claim, regardless of whether in an individual lawsuit or in a class action lawsuit, it is crucial that the law firm representing you have a competent and experienced team of Serophene lawyers to guide you through all of the legal hurdles as well as direct you to sufficient funding (litigation funding or legal finance) to cover pharmaceutical litigation costs. Contact a Serophene attorney today to schedule a free consultation and take your first step to obtaining compensation for losses caused by Serophene side effects.
Serophene—generically known as Clomiphene—is a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM). It's approved use is to induce ovulation in females who have difficulty producing their own eggs, but who still want to have children of their own. Serophene is sometimes prescribed off-label to treat male infertility as well. The most serious side effect of this drug is its tendency to cause Serophene birth defects. Serophene is manufactured byEMD Serono Inc., while another Serophene based drug, Clomid, is manufactured by EMD Serono Inc.
Other uses of this drug include treatment of menstrual abnormalities, fibrocystic breasts, and persistent milk production. Serophene has many counterindications and a competent medical professional ought to be consulted about any usage of this drug.
Women who have difficulty becoming pregnant should never have to have their dreams of motherhood dashed by giving birth to children with severe, occasionally life-threatening, birth defects.
Serophene birth defect injuries include the following:
- Heart Defects
- Cleft Lip
- Spectrum Disorder
- Asperger's Syndrome
- Cloacal exstrophy
- Dandy Walker Malformation Syndrome
- Esophageal atresia
- Penoscrotal Hypospadias
- Neoplasms of Offspring
- Abnormal Bone Development
- Neural Tube Defects
- Mental Retardation
- Tissue Malformations
- Genital Malformations
Some of these birth defects, such as Anencephaly, which involves and open cranium with an absence of a brain, can be fatal. We can only imagine how disheartening it would be to have a child with a fatal birth defect, and furthermore, we consider it almost a cruel joke that a medication meant to help bring a child into your life should subsequently take that child away.
Because Serophene has a high propensity to cause birth defects, it has been placed in category X by the Food and Drug Administration, meaning that there is ample evidence that it can cause birth defects. These birth defects are most likely to occur if a woman is unaware of her pregnancy and is still taking Serophene.
Unfortunately, the percentage of birth defects in offspring of women taking Serophene is much too high to tolerate. One study of 2,339 women found that 58 of them who were taking Serophene reported birth defects in their offspring. The risk of some birth defects goes up substantially—sometimes by as much as 170%—after being exposed to Serophene.
Although birth defects are the most common source of Serophene litigation, there are many more clomifene side effects as well. Some of these side effects include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Allergic Reaction
- Erthema Multiforme
- Erythema Nodosum
- Eye Pain
- Macular Edema
- Optic Neuritis
- Temporary Loss of Vision
- Posterior Vitreous Detatchment
- Retinal Hemorrhages
- Hodgkin's Lymphoma
- Lymphotic Leukemia
- Ovarian Cyst
- Uterine Hemorrhages
- Renal Cell Carcinoma
The Serophene adverse effects are by themselves likely to cause serious injury.
If you or a loved one has been seriously injured, or have had children with Serophene-related birth defects, as a result of taking Serophene might be eligible for compensation, which a Serophene law firm can help you secure. Contact one of our unsafe drug lawyers today to schedule a free and confidential case consultation.

The Unusual Suspects Theatre Company (US) is a recognized leader in the fields of arts education, mentorship and community building, having been a thriving force in the underserved neighborhoods of Los Angeles County for over two decades. Our participant-driven theatre-arts programs utilize arts education to mitigate the underlying family and community risk factors that threaten the healthy development of the 1,000+ children and adults we serve annually (90% in grades 5-12), including foster youth and incarcerated minors. Designed to empower youth with lifelong skills, the benefits of our programs go beyond the reach of a typical arts education workshop to provide vulnerable youth with the hope and confidence to overcome their difficult surroundings.
US was founded over 20 years ago with the mission to empower youth in underserved and at-risk environments with the means and methods necessary to explore personal and social conflicts and develop self-esteem and communication and coping skills in order to make positive life choices and become productive members of the community. Since then, US has grown from a small youth-intervention program into a collaborative, community-based theatre arts organization with a presence in underserved schools and juvenile detention camps throughout Los Angeles County. Today, with a staff of 7; a roster of 20 professional teaching artists; best-practice, standards-based curricula; and a significant role in countywide collaborative efforts, US’s innovative, place-based programs now serve over 1,000 Los Angelinos each year between the ages of 7-65+.
Description of 4 hour Lesson: Discovering Our Voice: Personal Expression through Theatre.
The Unusual Suspects 4 hour interactive professional development workshop provides middle school teachers the tools to build a creative classroom environment where students feel safe to explore personal and social group identities; and develop characters and story lines which become the foundational material to fuel a collaborative playwriting process. The US presenter will use theatre arts and playwriting exercises that demonstrate theatrical story development, script writing, and improvisation techniques. The standards based, language arts enrichment workshop will utilize ensemble exercises to establish trust, improvisation techniques to illustrate conflict and character development strategies, and writing exercises to explore the link between personal, cultural, and community issues.

The Song of India by award winning Chef Milind Sovand is one of the best Indian fine dining restaurants in Singapore. So imagine my surprise when I found out that DEAL.com.sg has a deal that offers 35% off a scrumptious weekend buffet brunch at The Song of India for only $29 NETT (usual price $44.75).
While I love going to nice restaurants, it is impossible to spend so much on food all the time. That’s why I think DEAL.com.sg is doing a great job providing consumers with dining deals at a huge discount.
Even though I haven’t tried many Indian buffets in Singapore, I’m going to go out on a limb here and say that you must try the buffet brunch at The Song of India.

34% of homeowners in the UK looking to move up the property ladder think that it is too difficult for them to move, according to new research by MoneySuperMarket.
On average, current mortgage holders say they need to save £10,549 before they can move. High house prices and the expense of moving are named as the two main reasons people have not yet moved house.
MoneySuperMarket found that 26% of respondents think it will be difficult to move up the ladder and a further 9% believe it is very difficult.
Among those aged between 35-54-years-old, this rises to 41% who would struggle to upscale and 28% of 18-34-year-olds would find it tough.
Head of Banking at MoneySuperMarket, Kevin Mountford, says: “There was a time when those in the 35-54 age group would have been looking to downsize, but now this is the age group where people are starting a family in some cases or still housing grown up children who are struggling to find their own way.
“Although they might have the earning potential to make that next step, there is the constraint of mortgage terms that comes with their age. Lenders will tend to fix the term of repayments to retirement age, so for those movers aged over 34, the repayments on increased value mortgages will be much higher, as they’re paying it back over a shorter time.
“For example, a £250,000 mortgage on the leading two-year fixed at 1.05% could be taken out by a 30-year-old with a 30-year term and the monthly repayments would be £810. However, for someone aged 45, the same mortgage over a 20-year term would have monthly repayments of £1,155; that’s £345 extra to find each month to make that next move.”
Generally, money is the main reason property owners cannot move, with 47% saying that house prices restrict their movement up the ladder. 43% say they cannot afford the cost of moving.
Current homeowners believe they must save an average of £10,549 to move house, with Londoners expecting to need £12,946. In the North East, this drops to £6,772.
Mountford continues: “Getting a foot on the property ladder in the first place can be hard work, but for many homeowners, it’s just as difficult to take the next step. House prices have rocketed in recent years and tougher borrowing rules have made the search for a mortgage slightly harder.
“It is vital for a healthy housing market that people are able to move up the property ladder, otherwise the whole system can come to a grinding halt, leading to a shortage of property. As a result, second steppers can’t afford to be complacent when it comes to deciding whether to upsize their home. Planning a budget will be crucial, and really taking the time to sit down and work out exactly what costs will be involved is essential.”
Mountford adds: “The good news for those looking to move is that there’s a great deal of competition in the mortgage market at the moment. We’ve seen a huge drop in fixed mortgage rates over the past few years, some with manageable fees. Perks such as free legal costs and free valuations on properties are also offered by some lenders in order to get customers through their doors. As such, there really hasn’t been a better time to get a mortgage.”
Mountford explains that it is important to look at the bigger picture when looking for a new mortgage: “Don’t get lured in by a headline rate, and work out the total cost you have to repay over the term of the offer before agreeing to a deal.
“Also, think about whether you want a fixed or variable rate deal. If you opt for a variable rate mortgage, you need to ensure that you will be able to afford your monthly repayments if and when interest rates do rise, as they won’t stay at this level forever.”1

The countdown is on: Everything we know about the Weeknd’s new album dropping tonight
The dawn is here, and a new Weeknd album has arrived with it.
The Toronto R&B and pop star is set to release his new album, “Dawn FM,” at 9 p.m. Pacific Thursday. It’ll be the first blockbuster release of 2022 and comes on the heels of 2020’s smash “After Hours.”
Although the “Blinding Lights” crooner has hinted at the upcoming album for most of the past year, the immediate rollout was much more sudden.
On New Year’s Day, the singer shared a screenshot of a text between himself and XO Records co-founder La Mar Taylor that implied he was ready to drop the album at a moment’s notice.
Grammy-winning pop star The Weeknd is shopping his full-story penthouse in Westwood around for $22.5 million.
“Music can heal and this feels more important than another album rollout,” he wrote. “Let’s just drop the whole thing and enjoy it with the people... XO.”
A few days later, the album’s official trailer dropped, along with the release date for “Dawn FM.”
The Weeknd will usher in the new album with a livestream, allowing fans to experience the “sonic universe” in real time just as its creator intended. Here’s everything you need to know before the project drops tonight.
The Weeknd scuttled plans for an ‘emotionally detrimental’ album and instead surprise-dropped ‘Dawn FM,’ which trades in cynicism for a newfound maturity.
The concept and what to expect
”Take My Breath,” the lone single released ahead of the album, is a synth-driven dance track featuring Weeknd’s lofty vocals and pulsing drums. Snippets from the teaser trailer and track list hint that more electronic sounds are on the way, similar to what he served up on “After Hours.”
Quincy Jones; Tyler, the Creator; Lil Wayne; and electronic composer Oneohtrix Point Never are set to appear on the album. Actor Jim Carrey, who narrated the trailer, will also contribute to the storyline.
In a 2021 interview with Billboard, Weeknd said the album conjures what an eternal radio station playing in purgatory might sound like.
“Picture the album being like the listener is dead,” he told Billboard. “And they’re stuck in this purgatory state, which I always imagined would be like being stuck in traffic waiting to reach the light at the end of the tunnel. And while you’re stuck in traffic, they got a radio station playing in the car, with a radio host guiding you to the light and helping you transition to the other side. So it could feel celebratory, could feel bleak, however you want to make it feel, but that’s what The Dawn is for me.”

How to watch the livestream
The “103.5 Dawn FM” live experience will kick off at 9 p.m. Pacific. The 103.5 FM station tag could be a nod to Z103.5, the Top 40 radio station in Toronto that’s shown the Weeknd a lot of love throughout his career.
“The power of the 103.5 Dawn FM experience is that maximum fulfillment comes when all who hear it are tuned in at the same time,” the Weeknd said in a statement.

WALL-E recently went viral when a well made fan droid interacted with BB-8 from Star Wars at Dragon Con. It’s a perfect reminder of just how incredible Disney/Pixar’s WALL-E is and how eleven years later, it still feels as fresh and relevant as it did in 2008.
Pop superstar/Disney fan Ariana Grande also incorporated WALL-E and EVE into her summer concert tour.
And the K-pop group SuperM recently included a WALL-E-like robot in their newest music video. Fans were quick to point out the similarities.
WALL-E fans are about to have ample opportunities to revisit this modern classic playing twice this month on Freeform as part of their “30 Days of Disney” event. It will also be a launch title on Disney+ when it debuts on November 12th.
Pixar movies are buddy comedies more often than not, but one of the reasons WALL-E stands out amongst all of their films is that it features one of the few romances in the catalogue. WALL-E holds a special place in my heart as well. It was my first date with the love of my life. While WALL-E and EVE shared their first sparks on screen, I was experiencing the same feelings in real life. We incorporated it into our ceremony by playing a track from the Thomas Newman score (“Define Dancing”) at our reception.
Audiences are still falling in love with WALL-E and EVE over a decade later. Here are just a few recent tweets that exemplify the film’s relevance for modern viewers.
Over on Instagram, fans around the world celebrate their love of WALL-E in a variety of creative ways, from photo ops with action figures to Disney Bounding and boot planters.
In my search, I found a lot of fans who have named their pets after both WALL-E and EVE (or “Eva”). But by far the most amazing pet find is this chihuahua/pug mix whose eyes bear a striking resemblance to everyone’s favorite trash compactor.
WALL-E isn’t just an unlikely love story between two sentient robots, but also a love story for planet earth itself. It tells a powerful cautionary tale about mankind's ignorance towards our impact on the planet and the need to change our habits to help ensure that our planet will have renewable resources for generations to come. It’s a message that was already present in other Disney projects such as the Disney Conservation Fund, Disney’s Animal Kingdom theme park, and Disneynature. Post Fox-acquisition, it is also a common theme from National Geographic.
You can watch WALL-E on Freeform’s “30 Days of Disney” on the following days and times.
- Saturday, September 7th, at 11:50 pm ET
- Sunday, September 8th, at 8:45 pm ET
You can stream WALL-E on Disney+ starting November 12th.

ECHA Updates Report on Key Areas of Regulatory Challenge, Addresses Micro- and Nano-Sized Materials
On June 12, 2024, the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) announced that it updated its report on key areas of regulatory challenge, providing more detailed information on areas where scientific research is needed to protect human health and the environment from hazardous chemicals. The report addresses micro- and nano-size materials, stating:
- Why further research is needed: Critical test methods to address the human and environmental hazard and risk assessment of nanomaterials are still missing. Furthermore, for most new approach methodologies (NAM), validation is missing to allow regulatory acceptance and uptake;
- Regulatory needs: These include test method development for nanomaterials, as well as suitable NAMs covering relevant regulatory endpoints. These should consider the analytical characterization of the materials to shed light on toxico-kinetics and -dynamics under different exposure scenarios. Further research should focus on the (bio)degradation potential, long-term effects in, e.g., sediments and soils, and their bioaccumulation potential; and
- Impact: Includes:
- Standard test methods for the hazard and risk assessment of nanomaterials;
- A framework for accepted regulatory NAMs to help the assessment of single nanoforms or sets of nanoforms; and
- Moving away from animal testing.
The report’s section on analytical methods of enforcement uses characterization of nanomaterials, including advanced nanomaterials, as an example of an area of application. The report states that specific research needs include:
- Developing and validating measurement techniques that can cover the entire nano range (1-100 nanometers (nm)) effectively. The microplastic restriction is already confronted with this problem;
- Enhancing the comparability and interoperability of different nanomaterial measurement techniques to reduce variability and uncertainty;
- Innovating sample preparation methods that are adaptable to a variety of nanomaterials and measurement techniques; and
- Establishing standardized methodologies that can be widely adopted for the characterization of nanomaterials.

We are now in the middle of what has been a very active season for cutworm infestation.
What is Cutworm?
Cutworm is a tiny larval grub that is about as long as your fingernail. They feed feverishly at night, and are almost impossible to see during the day as they return below the surface of the soil.
What does the damage look like?
Generally the damage they cause works across the lawn like a tide. I have seen them eat out 10-15 square metres per day. The damage can start in multiple sites but generally seems to start in one area (possibly on the edges) and moves across the lawn each evening until treatment.
The larvae feed on the new growth leaves as they grow away from the stem. This affects the grass’s ability to recover after mowing and shoot new fresh leaves as the older ones senesce and die away.
If you get down on your hands and knees you will see a serrated edge (2-3mm per chop or cut) along the leaf edge. From a distance (5-10 metres away) the formerly green lawn takes on an almost light-lime-green then almost a golden color.
This is not the work of the much maligned African Black beetle.
What types of lawn do they inhabit?
The two main types of Cutworm I have seen in my travels are Sod Webworm and Lawn Armyworm. These are most commonly found chewing Soft leaf buffalos such as Sir Walter, Palmetto and St Augustine.
I have also seen damage in Seashore Paspalum (Velvetene).
I have rarely seen/diagnosed Cutworm in the Couch varieties. Perhaps the harder, narrower leaf isn’t as desirable to the chewing critters.
Instant lawns in their first 2-3 Summers seem to be worst affected, and some seasons are worse than others. Conditions that favour development seem to be prolonged late-Summer, early-Autumn humidity. I have rarely seen Cutworm pre-Christmas, but have seen damage as late as May and even June.
The key to successful control is to apply a control agent when most of the larvae are still very small. I use an insecticide and generally find one application is sufficient. In about 5% of cases a second application of insecticide is needed 15-20 days later. This is in the worst cases where there have been two or three life cycles and destruction is through 80-90% of the lawn.
Because cutworms are nocturnal, insecticide applications should be made as late in the day as possible. This ensures the insecticide is as “fresh” as possible when the caterpillars leave their burrows in the evening and begin foraging on the surface.
The insecticide is watered in lightly for 5 10 minutes; just enough to move the insecticide off the leaf and into the upper thatch. The area then should not be mowed for one or two days after application.

Discover countless of locals in Maybury at no cost!
It was ending up being apparent to me that although I was investing a ludicrous quantity of money on strange females, it was not only fun and delightful yet was nearly habit forming. What would certainly each girl resemble and what would she agree to do?
I drove to another city to see a friend in the healthcare facility, which night in the hotel I decided to search for one more woman for some sex and amusement. The typical resource gave the normal choices, and I discovered one I liked.
The images in her profile showed her to be blond and really petite. She claimed to be 20 and very short. I located her in a sleezy resort and I was bothered with safety, yet I mosted likely to her space anyway.
Stacy was undoubtedly really small, practically childlike. I examined her genuine age and she showed me her chauffeur certificate yet hid her genuine name. She was in fact twenty years old, but appeared like she could be 16 which made me uneasy.
However she had a pretty face and used glossy lipstick and talked in a tiny, womanly voice that transformed me on. When we surpassed "the talk", I started with my preferred pastime and uncovered that she actually was a blond. She moaned and mewed as I licked her and she placed her fingers in my hair.
She was quick to reciprocate and simply the view of that shiny little pouty mouth fucking my penis was virtually sufficient to obtain me off. When I asked if I might fuck her without a condom, she said, "Yeah, just don't come inside me."
She was as tight as any lady I had ever before fucked and she played with her nipple areas as I pounded into her. When I prepared to find, I took out and she squeezed her legs together, trapping my shaft in between her thighs. She wrapped a hand around the end of my cock as I shot my load.
When I had ended up, she licked my cum off her hand while her eyes were chosen mine. "It turns me on to have an individual watch as I consume his cum," she claimed in her tiny voice. She was rubbing her pussy with her various other hand, yet I drew her hand away and lay between her legs.
I consumed her out like my life depended on it and when she came she threw her little hips up off the bed and held my head with both of her hands. When we first began I had actually intended to fuck her ass yet she was so tiny I was afraid it would hurt her.

Adanté Pointer is an award-winning, nationally recognized attorney that has represented families and people for over 15 years resulting in many of the highest verdicts and settlements in the nation.
Pointer recently won a $21 Million verdict in a federal jury trial against the Fremont Police Department. In 2023, he became responsible for California’s Number 1 Settlement in a Jail Abuse case on behalf of Maurice Monk who was denied medical care leading to his death causing the County of Alameda to settle for $7 million – which also resulted in permanent training and policy changes within the Santa Rita jail.
In 2024, Pointer was named the Daily Journal’s Top 100 Attorney. In 2023, Pointer and his firm received CLAY California Lawyer Attorneys of the Year. He has been selected as the “Nations Best Advocate” by the National Bar Association and is regularly awarded the title of “Super Lawyer” by the national Super Lawyers magazine. He was featured on the cover of Super Lawyers June 2024 magazine in an article titled “A Fight Within Him” – which recounts Pointer long history of fighting for families in police abuse and personal injury cases.
From representing the Oscar Grant’s family in their case against BART police officer Mehserle who shot and killed Mr. Grant as he lay face down on a BART station platform –– which was later into the block buster movie “Fruitvale” –– to representing the Foster & McCoy families in achieving a cumulative $10.7 million in record settlements against the City of Vallejo that exposed a police gang within the police department, Pointer has dedicated his life to fighting for the people, using the law as a shield and a sword for the most vulnerable of our communities —and winning
Pointer brings a wealth of his own personal experience of not only representing others who were abused by the police but himself as well. In 2019, Pointer filed a lawsuit against Oakland Police Department for being pulled over and made to crawl on the ground under threats of being shot because his car supposedly fit the description of another person. He turned that death defying experience into a short film called “Dead Right” which Pointer uses to educate the public.
Mr. Pointer has even had the benefit of representing a diverse range of clients from celebrities like Superbowl Defensive End Michael Bennett to over 10,000 victims in a class action lawsuit against Chevron in the Richmond Chevron Refinery Fire in 2012.
Pointer heavily invests in his community, regularly speaks at law schools, universities, protests, rallies, and in the media about police violence. He frequently hosts Know Your Rights workshops to teach the community about their civil rights and delivers motivational speeches to encourage our youth to reach for the stars.
Pointer’s Firm started a scholarship program “Lawyers For The People Scholar” that provides a $10,000 scholarship to a student that best represents dedication to helping under privileged and the community.

Pennsylvania’s Enhanced Self-Exclusion System for Gamblers is Now Live
The Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board (PGCB) has launched an enhanced, user-friendly online system to assist individuals displaying problem gambling behaviors. It announced the news in a statement earlier this week.
This system allows individuals to self-exclude from participating in any of the various gambling activity regulated by the board, marking a significant step forward in the state’s efforts to combat problem gambling.
Elizabeth Lanza, director of the PGCB’s Office of Compulsive and Problem Gambling (OCPG), highlighted the comprehensive approach of the new system.
“Each casino and online operator has an approved compulsive and problem gambling plan,” she said in the regulator’s official statement.
“This includes training employees on the symptoms of gambling disorder, policies to identify those with potentially harmful behavior, and responsible advertising policies.”
A Comprehensive Approach
The self-exclusion program, which began in 2006, was designed to allow individuals to ban themselves from entering and gambling at Pennsylvania casinos.
It was expanded in 2017 to include self-exclusion programs for online casinos, sports wagering, Video Gaming Terminals (VGTs) at truck stops, and online fantasy sports.
The new online system, accessible at responsibleplay.pa.gov, offers several new features to assist individuals struggling with problem gambling.
These include the ability to enroll in one, several, or all self-exclusion programs, request removal from the casino self-exclusion program, extend the period of their self-exclusion ban, view their self-exclusion documents and status in real-time, and update their personal information.
For identity verification purposes, individuals enrolling in a self-exclusion program must upload a “selfie” picture that matches with a picture of their photo ID.
Beyond Self Exclusion
The PGCB’s efforts to combat problem gambling extend beyond the self-exclusion program.
Casinos or gambling operators that let restricted players use their services can be hit with serious fines, and/or other punishments. To convince signees not to try and break their own ban, anyone doing so could face criminal trespass charges – and have any gambling winnings confiscated.
All licensed online operators, from casinos to sports wagering or fantasy sports, must have options on their sites that enable the player to place self-imposed limits on deposits, wagers, spend, and play time.
The Board also promotes responsible gambling awareness, to avoid problem gambling patterns manifesting at all.
These efforts are backed up by the recent release of figures showing 20,000 people have participated in the state programs since they started.
What’s Really at Stake
The PGCB’s Office of Compulsive and Problem Gambling has also worked to develop public health educational campaigns, such as “What’s Really at Stake” and “Don’t Gamble with Kids.”
That second campaign was the result of a concerning trend at state casinos in 2023. Over the past few months, several different Pennsylvania casino attendees were caught attempting to bring children into casinos, or leave them outside in cars while they go for a gambling session.
State authorities and casinos have, unsurprisingly, taken a tough stance on this behavior.
The total gambling market in Pennsylvania is worth more than $450 million a month, and recent figures show it is growing year-on-year. It provides some $600 million a year in taxes for the state, some of which is earmarked for problem gambling prevention funds. Popular state casinos include Hollywood Casino at Penn National Racecourse

This print showcases the intricate details of a cornice in Woodsome Hall, located in Kirkburton, Kirklees. The hall, once a grand house and now serving as a golf club house, was constructed over several stages for the esteemed Kaye family between the 16th and 17th centuries. With its two storeys and main hall range facing east, complemented by a north cross wing, this architectural marvel also features enclosed ranges that form a charming courtyard at the rear. The focal point of this image is undoubtedly the mesmerizing plasterwork adorning the cornice. Delicately crafted dragons and mermen come to life through skilled artistry, bringing an air of mystique to this historic setting. These mythical creatures seem to dance along the repeating pattern on the cornice's surface, adding an enchanting touch to every corner of this first-floor chamber. Photographer George Bernard Wood has expertly captured both the grandeur and intricacy of these elements within Woodsome Hall. This photograph serves as a testament to not only England's rich history but also highlights how architecture can seamlessly blend with mythology to create timeless beauty.

Being compelled by a vision to redefine lifestyle, and consumed by the passion to create an ultra-comfortable experience, we at Little Nap always strive to build recliners that are relaxing for mind, body and soul.
We have always been inspired by the wisdom behind natural sleep. A deeper, more rejuvinating sleep alleviates the stresses of the day thereby restoring the balance of scales. This is what we wanted to emulate when we started Little Nap. A sweet “little” comfortable “nap” that is completely refreshing.
The name of our company is also inspired by the ideals set by the founder of Sony- Akio Morita. ‘Sony’ meaning ‘sound’ has got us thinking about our brand name, a name that does justice to our identity. We picked “Little Nap” because we have engineered our recliners with a comfort that instantly puts one into a napping mode.
Our Logo reflects a chair in reclining position. We always wanted to give maximum comfort the way the client chooses it. And this is why we customise our recliners to the last detail.
Since we are in the business of comfort, we want our consumers to enjoy a cozy relaxing experience that is therapeutic and stress relieving. And that is what we hope to achieve with each passing day.

Sowing seeds indoors is a great way to get a head start on your gardening year while it’s still too cold to sow outdoors. Seeds sown indoors get all the warmth, moisture and light they need to germinate, and it’s also a great way to protect young seedlings from pests such as slugs and snails.
Which seeds to sow indoors?
You can sow most seeds indoors, but it’s especially useful for plants with a long growing season, like tomatoes, and for tender summer-flowering annuals like cosmos. To ensure they’re big enough in summer to produce flowers and fruit, they need to be sown early in the year and grown in a protected environment until it’s warm enough to plant them outside.
Where to sow seeds indoors?
A greenhouse with a heated propagation bench is the Rolls-Royce of indoor seed sowing. It’s ideal for all sorts of seeds, but especially tender plants like begonias, which need warmth to germinate and grow on.
A heated propagator is like a miniature version of a greenhouse propagator bench, using an electrically powered heating mat controlled by a thermostat. Some are small enough to fit on a windowsill, so they’re ideal for gardeners short on space.
An unheated propagator is essentially a seed tray with a clear lid that helps to trap warmth and increase the humidity inside the propagator. Some have ventilation holes to reduce the risk of fungal diseases. If your propagator is on a windowsill, you will need to turn it regularly (probably daily) to give your seedlings an even amount of light from all directions.
Many seeds will germinate well in pots on a sunny windowsill. Placing the pots inside clear plastic bags creates a DIY propagator, trapping in warmth and moisture to help germination. Remove the bags once the seeds have germinated to reduce the risk of fungal diseases.
What to sow seeds in?
You can sow seeds in almost any container that will hold compost and drain well. Here are some of the most commonly used:
- Seed trays are good for sowing small seeds. The seedlings can be pricked out and potted on when large enough to handle.
- Small pots filled with seed compost are ideal for larger seeds, such as beans, nasturtiums and sunflowers. Rinsed-out empty yoghurt pots with a few holes pierced in their bases make excellent pots for sowing seeds.
- Module trays are plastic trays divided into rows of small cells or modules which can be filled with compost. Sow one or two seeds per module. Once the seedlings germinate, remove the compost ‘plug’ containing each seedling and pot on.
- Root trainers are long modules specially designed for seedlings that need to produce long tap roots, such as sweet peas.
Ready to get sowing this spring? Visit our garden centre where you’ll find a fantastic range of seeds and gardening equipment to get your garden off to a great start!

LaPlace man pleas to murder conspiracy after 22-year-old shot & killed
Published 12:21 am Saturday, April 13, 2019
EDGARD — A LaPlace man is facing several decades in jail, prosecutors say, the result of his guilty pleas to conspiracy to commit second degree murder and obstruction of justice.
According to District Attorney Bridget A. Dinvaut’s office, Judge J. Sterling Snowdy scheduled Trey Johnson’s sentencing for May 13.
Johnson pleaded guilty Monday, which was scheduled to be Day 1 of his trial.
As part of his plea, Johnson admitted he participated in the murder of 22-year-old Dejuan Bell of LaPlace and afterward hid the murder weapon.
In connection with his plea, Johnson accepted the maximum sentence provided by law for conspiracy to commit murder, which is 30 years with the Department of Corrections at hard labor.
Johnson also faces up to 40 years at hard labor for the obstruction of justice conviction.
According to the District Attorney’s office, the victim’s mother was consulted and approved of the plea offer.
Assistant District Attorneys Christopher Cortez and Henri Dufresne presented the State’s case. The defendant was represented by public defender Anthony J. Ibert.
Prosecutors said evidence collected during the investigation indicated that on July 6, 2016, Johnson was in the victim’s vehicle at the time of the murder.
The defendant’s own statement and a bloody handprint collected by the St. John Sheriff’s Office helped link the defendant to Bell’s murder.
Following Johnson’s arrest almost three years ago, police announced the suspected trigger man was still being sought.
At the time, St. John Sheriff Mike Tregre made a plea to the community, saying deputies believed there were people out there who could help solve the case.
On Friday morning, authorities said that ended up not being the case. According to the Sheriff’s Office, Johnson said there was another subject; however, through investigation detectives never found any physical evidence to support his claim.
Authorities, early on, pointed to drugs as the cause of the deadly July 6 encounter.
Tregre credited community feedback with leading to Johnson’s arrest, saying multiple residents assisted investigators by providing home surveillance.
Johnson was arrested July 7, 2016, charged with principal to first degree murder and obstruction of justice — tampering with evidence.
Bell was discovered at 7:53 p.m. July 6 in the 8800 block of Richmond Drive in Reserve, slumped over the steering wheel of a vehicle with a gunshot wound.
Emergency medical services brought Bell to the hospital, where he succumbed to his injuries.
Deputies were initially alerted to trouble following a shots-fired call along Richmond Drive.
Deputies discovered Bell at the scene in his car, which had crashed into a fence and also struck a building.
Investigators believe the shooting took place while the vehicle was in motion.

Bay Leaves - fresh bagged - 10 | CAT Orchard
10 fresh bay leaves - plenty to dry or use in cooking.
WHO AM I?
I add a HUGE amount of taste to stews, casseroles, Italian cooking. One of those tastes you are not quite sure what it is but your cooking will simply taste better.
If you don't grow bay trees yourself then you don't know what you are missing! Add one or perhaps two leaves whole when cooking. Add fresh or dried (we offer both options). Clearly you don't eat the leaves - lift them out when dinner is served!
And bay leaves are a natural pesticide in your pantry. Throw a bay leaf branch in there and pantry moths are a thing of the past. If you have a heavy moth infestation, you need to clean out infected food packages first of course. Check it out, it really is a thing: Article

It was in March 2020 when a 16-year-old Jude Bellingham was driven through the gates of Carrington to be given a tour of Manchester United’s training ground. Accompanied by his parents, the then-Birmingham City midfielder held talks with United’s transfer gurus and former manager Sir Alex Ferguson to gauge an understanding of the club, as they plotted a move for his signature that forthcoming summer. At the time, the hype around Bellingham was already beginning to take off, following a string of eye-catching performances in the Championship.
In the end, it was Borussia Dortmund that won the race for his signature, landing him in June 2020 for an initial fee of £25million. Birmingham reacted to his departure by making the decision to retire his No.22 shirt. It was a move that put the club under a microscope, resulting in widespread ridicule.
He had made just 44 senior appearances and the decision seemed laughable. Fast forward the clock more than two years and nobody is laughing now, such is the speed at which Bellingham has developed. Despite only turning 19 this summer, Bellingham is now widely considered as one of the most exciting players in the world and is idolised by millions. His overall game has gone from strength-to-strength at Dortmund, and he is in with a very good chance of playing a key role for England at the World Cup later this year.
Joining Dortmund at just 16, the overall opinion was that Bellingham would get the odd appearance here and there. However, the German giants made the decision to throw him straight in at the deep end, highlighted by his tally of 46 appearances in all competitions during his maiden season at the Westfalenstadion.

From the time you have been educating yourself in school to the time you enter your workplace in your office around your colleagues, the one thing that boat institutions have always emphasized is good relations, friendship, and love. They always looked for teamwork in the students and the employees as well. Schools try to build up your experience for you to know what an office environment would be like and how you would be expected to work in teams. But have you ever wondered why so much importance has been given to team building?
Why is team building important?
It is always said that when there are a group of people working as a team, they work better than individual people working on one project each. When in a team, different people come up with different ideas and the best one is what the team goes ahead with so it also increases the quality of work. Working in a team helps you learn many important values and it helps you build new friendships too.
How can one build teamwork?
Several activities are usually played in offices so that the team work shows and the employees have fun too. Murder mystery team building game is like one of those innovations that have been quite successful in the past and continue to be successful right now too. This game puts brains together and helps the team understand how their other team members think and ideate.

Unfinished fabricated metal tarnishes and corrodes when frequently exposed to various external elements. Proper finishing is critical in enhancing steel fabrication designs’ durability and longevity. Since its introduction in North America in the 1960s, the dry finishing process called powder coating has become extremely popular. It requires less equipment and application time, resulting in less rejected work than other finishing methods.
Powder coating is the process of applying a dry powdered paint compound. It’s made of pigments and resin and is electrostatically sprayed on a surface to form a painted finish. Typically, any metal object can be powder coated if it can tolerate the high levels of heat required by the curing process.
What Are the Benefits of Powder Coating?
So, why powder coat your steel fabrication designs? Let’s explore some of the advantages of powder coating.
Powder coating makes steel fabricated work more resistant to moisture, chemicals, UV light and other conditions. It reduces the risk of scratches, chipping, fading, corrosion and other signs of wear and tear. Powder coating is ideal for metal parts and equipment often exposed to sunlight, such as agricultural equipment, metal railings and automotive parts.
Another powder coating benefit is longevity. Powder coating improves the durability of metal parts, contributing to their longer life span.
Powder coating is more environmentally sound than liquid paints because it doesn’t contain solvents or harsh chemicals. It only contains dry powder, which creates a pollutant-free application process when sprayed from the gun to the metal surface. The powder coating’s electrostatic charge makes it adhere to the surface without solvents.
Another benefit of powder coating is the elimination of volatile organic compounds, which, according to the Environmental Protection Agency, impact air quality and pose health risks.
In addition to durability and eco-friendliness, powder coating offers design benefits. It’s available in various finishes, such as high gloss, semigloss and matte. The light-reflecting properties also allow color matching with all colors of the rainbow.
Moreover, the spray application creates uniformity in the appearance of powder-coated metal parts. Compared to liquid paint and other alternatives, powder coating is less likely to cause runs, bubbles or streaks. It also allows thicker coatings for steel fabrication projects while maintaining consistency, which plastic coating or dipping can’t easily achieve.
Powder coating is relatively easy to apply and dries quickly. The curing process doesn’t take long, leading to a shorter production time. The less laborious application also translates to less manual labor. It allows higher throughput, which helps reduce labor costs while boosting productivity.
The powder base has a long shelf life and can easily be stored in dry places without the risk of drying out or deteriorating, contributing to more cost savings.
Metal parts protected by powder coating require less maintenance and don’t need special cleaning. Light scrubbing and washing with water are enough to remove accumulated dirt and dust. This simple cleaning procedure does not affect the coating’s color, finish and performance.
Once applied, powder coating cures quickly, making the product ready for immediate use. This reduces labor and production costs and increases productivity for manufacturers.
Ensuring Quality Results
While powder coating is relatively easy to perform given the product’s sound consistency when melted, powder coat technicians must ensure they deliver quality results in every fabrication project. Key steps in the powder coating process include:
- Thorough cleaning and preparation: Surface preparation entails cleaning, rinsing and drying the product. This step removes contaminants, ensuring a smooth coating and proper adhesion.
- Powder coat application: Once the product surface is dry and contaminant-free, the technician begins the application process using a fluidized bed or an electrostatic spray deposition. Both methods evenly distribute the powder, producing a polished surface.
- Curing process: The process ends with curing, where the melted powder adheres to the metal. Curing duration varies depending on the coating and application method.
Common Powder Coating Applications
The durability and cost-efficiency of powder coating explain its popularity. The following markets and industries use powder coating:
- Outdoor furniture and equipment manufacturers
- Home appliance manufacturers
- Office equipment and cabinetry manufacturers
- Architectural component manufacturers
- Military equipment manufacturers

As skin ages, it begins to lose collagen filled with hyaluronic acid (HA). Collagen and HA add structure and volume to the face, and therefore a lack of HA causes the skin to sag and wrinkle. That’s where dermal fillers come into play.
JUVÉDERM is a smooth-consistency gel that restores volume to the skin, and smooths away moderate-to-severe facial wrinkles and folds, . It is made of hyaluronic acid (HA), a sugar that occurs naturally in the body. In terms of the skin, HA’s role is to deliver nutrients and hydration, and act as a cushioning agent. Young, healthy skin contains a lot of HA, but factors that include aging and sun exposure reduce the amount, causing skin to lose structure and volume.
JUVÉDERM improves the appearance of nasolabial folds, the lines that run from the bottom of the nose to the corner of the mouth on both sides of the face, the glabellar lines (which run between the eyebrows) and the nasolabial folds. JUVÉDERM injectable gel is also FDA-approved, for those 21 and older, for enhancing the lips. JUVÉDERM adds volume to these depleted areas to restore your face to a more natural youthful appearance. In just one short appointment, you will immediately see the aesthetic results.
Treats moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds such as nasolabial folds. Unlike the original JUVÉDERM injectable gel, JUVÉDERM XC is infused with lidocaine to make its injection more comfortable.
JUVÉDERM® VOLUMA® XC
Designed to add volume to the cheek or china area for shape and definition . Results last up to 24 months in the cheeks with optimal treatment. Lasts up to 1 year in the chin with optimal treatment.
JUVÉDERM® VOLBELLA® XC
Designed to add volume to the lips and for correction of perioral lines (lines around the mouth), often called lipstick lines, vertical lip lines, or lip wrinkles. JUVÉDERM® VOLBELLA® XC lasts up to 1 year, with optimal treatment.
JUVÉDERM Injectable Gel Procedure
JUVÉDERM injections take about 15 minutes to administer in a doctor’s office. A fine needle is used for the injection, which is given under the skin in the targeted area to add volume or fill in wrinkles and folds. Because JUVÉDERM contains lidocaine to improve comfort, an anesthetic may not be needed. However, a doctor may still elect to use a topical anesthetic on the area to be treated before giving the injection. Afterword, the doctor may gently massage the treated area(s).
Once treatment is completed, patients can return, with virtually no downtime, to their regular activities. For the first 24 hours after treatment, to reduce the risk of complications, patients should avoid strenuous exercise, excessive sun or heat exposure, and alcohol consumption.
Results Of JUVÉDERM Injectable Gel
The results of JUVÉDERM are visible immediately after injection; any swelling and bruising, to which ice can be applied, should subside during the next few days. Results can last 6 to 9 months, and, in some cases, over a year. However, according to its manufacturer, “Results from injectable dermal filler vary and correction is temporary. Supplemental ‘touch up’ treatments may be required to achieve and maintain optimal correction of wrinkles and folds.”

The feet are the foundation for nearly all functional movements and activities of daily life. It is estimated that the average person will walk about 115,000 miles in their lifetime and by the time they are 70, they will have walked the equivalent of 4 times around the world (1).
The foot can also provide insight to our health and how we move. Many conditions such as arthritis diabetes, and circulatory issues can initially present with symptoms in the feet. Additionally, poor foot mechanics create compensatory movement patterns, which can result in hip, knee, or back pain.
The foot is a complex and sophisticated structure comprised of 28 bones and 35 joints. It is held together by 120 ligaments and 20 muscles. Additionally, we have more than 7,000 nerve endings in each foot, which is more than any other body part. It is theorized that this is because we rely on the body awareness or proprioception in the feet to send unconscious signals to our brains to help us balance and coordinate how we move through space.
What is Proprioception?
Proprioception is the unconscious ability to sense the position and movement of a joint or body part in space. This happens through sensory receptors called proprioceptors, which are located in the inner ear, muscles, tendons, ligaments, and joints. Proprioceptors respond to stretch, tension, and pressure on our tissues. When they are stimulated, the sensory nerve endings surrounding the proprioceptors send signals to the central nervous system or brain, telling us where our joints are in space.
We rely on these signals to the brain to navigate our environment and react quickly to any changes that might take place. While we need proprioception in all of our joints, it is especially important to have good proprioception in the feet, because they are the first contact point that we have to the ground. This means that they play a critical role in balance and reaction time. For example, being able to sense where our feet are allows us to walk with ease, move through a dark room without running into something, and stop ourselves from falling, if we trip on a step.
However, because we wear ill fitting shoes and don’t spend a lot of time moving our feet, many of us lose proprioception, which can reduce quality of life and increase our risk of injury as we age. Reduced proprioception in the lower leg has been linked to balance problems and an increased risk of falling among older adults. (2) Additionally, it is believed that poor proprioception can play a role in foot pain and it is estimated that a quarter of the population is affected by foot pain at any given time (3).
How to Improve Proprioception in the Feet
One of the best ways to improve foot proprioception and balance is to move the foot and ankle in diverse ranges of motion and stimulate the bottom of the foot and surrounding areas using different tools, including balls and bands.
This helps improve communication and reactivity between the foot and the brain by stimulating the nerve endings in the feet. Addressing foot mechanics and improving proprioception can also promote healthy movement patterns, which can reduce pain in the feet, knees, hips and low back.
The "Back to Front" Foot exercise (demonstrated to the right) teaches proper ankle and foot mechanics while building movement awareness. The ball helps to teach how the joints move by providing tactile cues; for example, if one ankle moves more easily than the other, the ball provides feedback on how to adjust the foot.
You can also use a variety of props, including bands and the Arcus. For more foot exercises and instructions, read Trent's featured article, Mind Over Feet in Pilates Style magazine here.
Trent McEntire, Director and Founder
As someone who became a professional dancer after rehabilitating his own severe movement restrictions established at birth due to Cerebral Palsy, Trent understands how the quality of life is affected by how well you can (or can't) move your body. For 20 years, he has been sharing his discoveries and method with those seeking to overcome their own movement limitations. His work has led to an international school and equipment designed to further the development of Pilates Therapy and Neuro-Movement. Trent has presented his work at international conferences and host sites in Italy, Japan, Spain, Mexico, UK, Brazil, Canada, and throughout the US.

Ranked as one of the cities with the most skyscrapers, Shenzhen is the epitome of a contemporary megalopolis. In this dense urban context, the city’s policies focus on the quality of public life and innovative green design. The Hengli Group Headquarters will host the world's largest weaving enterprise in a Shenzhen Bay landmark, displaying the company’s culture in line with the new ambitious urban policies.
Mecanoo’s design is a composition of two volumes with a commercial plinth. The top two levels of the lower building are fused to the 238 m high tower. The volumes contract and expand to accommodate public space and vegetation on different levels. The plinth is ‘carved out’ to create a sense of scale and increase permeability at ground level. A lively meeting point, the ground floor urban square leads to the main entrances and links the pedestrian routes through the site.
This square is open to a sunken plaza which provides access to the metro and to two underground parking levels. Together, square and plaza connect the shops and catering facilities from different levels, easing customer access.
Above the ground level plaza, the two buildings extend progressively towards each other, and connect at the 5th and 6th level, providing shelter from the subtropical climate. On top of the 5th level is a generous outdoor space surrounded by stepped green terraces.
This level celebrates the city’s outdoor lifestyle with a restaurant, shops and leisure areas overseeing the city. Above this floor, the tower steps back gradually with a series of green roofs and terraces, connecting the users to nature and offering panoramic views of Shenzhen Bay. Cascading down the facade, vegetation will purify the air and improve the indoor environment.
Housing the Hengli Group Headquarters, the tower is mainly occupied by offices and three storeys of cultural facilities. A shopping mall with dedicated spaces for concerts and events takes up the 3rd and 4thfloor while the 5th level houses a museum. The lower volume is dedicated to commerce, featuring retail areas, restaurants, cafes and a generous atrium for various events.
Programme: Jury's 1st place selection in the competition design for the development of a 11, 900 m2 site with a 238 m high tower of 106,190 m2 including offices, commercial spaces, and cultural facilities.

Catalana de Gas i Electricitat, SA
Download date: 09/12/2024
Built between 1893 and 1895, the Catalana de Gas i Electricitat building was designed by the architect Josep Domenech i Estapà. It has been declared a Cultural Asset of Local Interest.
A demonstration of power
The Catalana de Gas i Electricitat building is relatively small, but looks impressive thanks to the monumental air conferred on it by the architect. It is an eclectic construction, mixing the most common elements of Catalan Modernisme with features of Viennese secessionism and Neoclassical elements. The outward appearance of the building remains virtually intact, but there is hardly anything original left in the interior except the entrance staircase and some columns. It was the company’s base (today known as Gas Natural) from 1895 until it moved to Barceloneta in 2008.
At the end of 2008, the Swedish company H&M opened a new branch in the building, giving it a radically new use to that which it had had up to this point. For some time a number of clothing companies were vying for the property thanks to its strategic location and spectacular look.

Construïda entre el 1893 i el 1895, la Catalana de Gas i Electricitat és una obra de l´arquitecte Josep Domènech i Estapà, i està declarada Bé Cultural d´Interès Local.
L´any 1893, la Societat Catalana per a l´Enllumenat del Gas encarregava la construcció de la seva futura seu a l´arquitecte Josep Domènech i Estapà. Tot seguint la tendència de l´època –i el seu gust pel monumentalisme–, Domènech i Estapà va projectar una obra grandiloqüent i eclèctica que actualment ocupa una botiga de la companyia sueca de roba H&M.

I was delighted to participate in the Univision Health Tour, which visited San Antonio July 10 at Woodlawn Lake. The tour was part of Univision's month-long health and wellness initiative. The national media company, who caters to Hispanic Americans, created the campaign to bring education and awareness to communities about healthier living. The goal is to bring tools and empowerment to people so they can take action and lead healthier lives.
Wesley Nurses and community health workers from Methodist Healthcare Ministries (MHM) supported Univision's goal by bringing tools for healthy living to event attendees. We provided free health screenings to more than 70 participants. The types of screenings included blood pressure and glucose checks. We also shared education about various health topics and referred individuals to additional resources based on their personal needs. Notably, 52 of the individuals screened by MHM had no health insurance.
I'm so thankful we were present to help those in need, within our community, receive important health screenings that may have a direct impact on their overall lifestyle and well-being. With no health insurance, these individuals may not have received this care without the support provided by MHM. I'm happy we had the opportunity to attend the event and to serve the attendees. We were definitely at the right place, at the right time.

Middlesex have announced a thirteen-man squad for the away trip to play Lancashire in the Specsavers County Championship at Southport and Birkdale Cricket Club.
Middlesex head into the clash on the back of a recent draw against Somerset at Lord’s, where the weather once again played its part in frustrating both sides’ hopes of forcing a result in the match.
Middlesex today announced the news that Adam Voges will fly back to Australia for a period of six weeks, to recover from the torn calf injury he picked up whilst playing in that Somerset clash, although as Voges steps out, a fully fit Sam Robson returns to the side to take his place, having now recovered from a hamstring injury that has kept him on the side-lines for the last five weeks. Robson will resume his opening partnership with Nick Gubbins at the top of the order, as Nick Compton also misses out of the trip to Southport, favoured for the Second Eleven Trophy final instead, being played at Headingley today.
The batting ranks are also bolstered by the return of an in-form Dawid Malan, who steps back into the side, having recently performed so admirably for the England Lions against South Africa-A.
James Harris’s loan spell has also now finished at Kent, and he is named in the squad, with Steven Finn absent on international duty with England in the ICC Champions Trophy. Harris joins a seam attack comprising Toby Roland-Jones, Tom Helm and Tim Murtagh, with Ollie Rayner, Ravi Patel, Paul Stirling and Dawid Malan offering options in the spin department.
Middlesex currently reside in sixth place in the Division One table, with a tally of 45 points from four drawn matches, whilst their opponents Lancashire, sit just one place ahead, on 54 points having played a game more. Whilst Middlesex head into this clash unbeaten, Lancashire must pick themselves up after a thumping innings defeat by Yorkshire in their recent roses clash.
Whilst Middlesex have clearly been frustrated by the weather and have at times looked below their normal standards of excellence, resulting in four consecutive drawn matches this term, Middlesex Captain James Franklin remains optimistic that the side can find the victory they need to build momentum throughout the coming month when his side play four back to back Championship matches…
“We must remember that it is a marathon, not a sprint, and we’ve still got 10 Championship games to go and I’m hoping we’ll get one win and then build momentum.
“There’s no panic stations yet. Last year it took us seven games to get our first win, we’re only four games in for 2017, and things can change a lot within a month. We’re not playing badly, we’re just not quite firing on all cylinders.”

How do I qualify for disability?
You might be wondering whether you qualify for disability due to poor health. Find out in this article.
If you’ve been struggling financially due to your health problems, you might wonder whether you’re able to qualify for social security or disability. It’s important to understand what your options are when it comes to applying for financial assistance in this way. Disability is designed to ensure that you’re able to receive assistance that can help you financially even when you aren’t physically able to work. Here’s what you need to know.
Types of disabilities
The Social Security Administration provides a list of mental and physical problems that qualify individuals for disability payments. There are many types of health problems that qualify an individual for disability, including respiratory diseases, such as asthma, and muscular problems. Additionally, many mental health disorders, skin disorders, and even digestive disorders may qualify an individual for assistance.
Applying for disabilities
In some cases, you may be tempted to wait to apply for disability. If you’ve never applied before, you might be nervous about asking for financial help. It’s important that you don’t wait, however. Processing times may vary depending on when you apply, so understand that you won’t receive assistance right away. It’s important that you start the process of receiving a diagnosis and filling out the paperwork promptly.
Your first stop is to visit your doctor so they can properly diagnose you. Bring as much information as possible when you meet with your doctor. You’ll need to know exactly what your symptoms are, how long they’ve been affecting you, and the impact these symptoms have had on your life. For example, does your knee pain make it difficult to walk? Are you struggling to perform your normal daily tasks? Have you been dealing with migraines and headaches since you were in an accident? No matter what your physical condition might be, make sure you reach out to your physician. This should be your first step.
When you are ready to apply for assistance, you will be responsible for supplying evidence that you have a disability. Understand that the person who reviews your case does not know you personally. The only contact they will have with you is in relation to your case, which makes it incredibly important that you provide as much evidence as possible as to your disability. You may need to include a copy of your physician’s examination, mental health records, and blood work panels. Test results and copies of MRI or CT-scan reports may also be necessary. Keep in mind that you don’t just need to prove you have a disability. You also need to show that it prevents you from being able to work.
Learning whether your medical condition qualifies you for benefits can be difficult, so reach out to an experienced disability attorney who can help answer your questions. Your attorney will discuss your case with you and help you understand what your options are moving forward. Furthermore, your lawyer will help you to start the paperwork process and assist you in applying for benefits.
